Fitell (FTEL) Secures $50M Convertible Note to Launch ‘2F Robotics,’ Will Hold Proceeds in Stablecoins — Nov. 6, 2025

6 November 2025

Fitell Corporation (NASDAQ: FTEL) announced a new $50 million senior secured convertible note and the creation of 2F Robotics, a joint venture focused on AI‑driven robotic systems spanning home, kitchen, fitness, and industrial uses. Net proceeds are slated to be converted into stablecoin assets and kept with a U.S. custodian, giving the company flexibility as it funds the robotics platform and its core fitness operations. [1]

Key takeaways

  • $50M financing: Fitell signed a securities purchase agreement with a U.S.-based institutional investor for a Series C senior secured convertible note to support 2F Robotics. Closing remains subject to customary conditions. [2]
  • Stablecoin strategy: The company plans to convert net proceeds to stablecoins; its treasury mix will include cash, stablecoins, Solana (SOL), and PUMP alongside traditional holdings. [3]
  • AI robotics JV:2F Robotics will develop and commercialize AI-driven robotics; GZ Fukonn Vanguard Intelligent Technology will serve as a product development partner. Fitell says it will retain majority ownership and full IP rights. [4]
  • Deal mechanics: The Series C note carries 6.0% annual interest, payable monthly in cash and/or Class A ordinary shares, rising to 13% on default; it is secured by a first-priority lien on substantially all assets (including crypto collateral) and includes a 9.99% conversion cap to limit beneficial ownership. U.S. Bank Trust Company is trustee under the indenture. [5]
  • Placement agent:Rodman & Renshaw is the exclusive placement agent for the transaction, according to the company. [6]

What happened today (Nov. 6, 2025)

Fitell released its announcement at 8:50 a.m. ET, outlining the financing and the 2F Robotics initiative. The company emphasized that converting proceeds to stablecoin assets provides capital stability and allocation flexibility between the new JV, corporate treasury, and ongoing fitness operations. Reuters also flagged the announcement in its news feed. [7]

Street context: Early coverage on financial newswires highlighted the note terms and strategic intent; some outlets also noted a positive initial reaction in morning trading following the release. (Prices fluctuate intraday.) [8]

Why it matters for FTEL

  • Strategic pivot + diversification: For a company best known for online fitness equipment retailing in Australia, the 2F Robotics venture signals a push into higher‑margin, IP‑driven hardware and automation, while the stablecoin approach aims to smooth capital deployment amid market volatility. [9]
  • Balance-sheet clarity: The indenture and 6‑K filings spell out investor protections—first‑lien security, default step‑ups, and conversion limits—important for assessing dilution and credit risk. [10]
  • Regulatory footing: As context, Fitell recently regained compliance with Nasdaq’s $1.00 minimum bid price rule (notice dated Oct. 15, 2025), a backdrop that can matter for institutional access and liquidity. [11]

Deal terms at a glance (from the 6‑K)

  • Instrument: Series C senior secured convertible note (registered under the company’s Form F‑3 shelf).
  • Interest:6.0% per annum, payable monthly in arrears; may be paid in cash and/or interest shares.
  • Security:First‑priority lien on substantially all tangible and intangible assets, including crypto collateral, subject to intercreditor arrangements with Series A holders.
  • Default rate:13% per annum upon events of default.
  • Conversion cap:9.99% beneficial ownership limit (adjustable with 61 days’ notice, but not above 9.99%).
  • Trustee/Indenture:U.S. Bank Trust Company, N.A. under a base and supplemental indenture qualified under the Trust Indenture Act. [12]

About 2F Robotics and the product roadmap

Fitell says 2F Robotics will prioritize AI‑driven robotics and automation systems applicable to consumers and industry. GZ Fukonn Vanguard Intelligent Technology—described as an Asia‑based robotics firm with patented hardware, dedicated R&D, and deployments in Canada and the Middle East—will partner on development. Fitell intends to leverage its existing distribution in Australia and the U.S., while retaining majority ownership and all IP. [13]

Market reaction & coverage

  • Company press release and SEC filing detailed the structure and use of proceeds. [14]
  • Reuters distributed a brief note on the announcement across financial terminals and news platforms. [15]
  • StreetInsider summarized the key points and referenced an early upward move in FTEL shares following the announcement time-stamped this morning. (Quotes and percentages are time‑specific and may change.) [16]

  • Why Uber Stock Is Falling and Whether It Is a Buying Opportunity
    November 6, 2025, 1:42 PM EST. Uber (UBER) stock has been under pressure as investors weigh the threat of new entrants, the long arc of profitability, and bets on driverless vehicle technology. The latest action suggests the market is bracing for continued competition in ride-hailing and the company's ability to monetize its delivery platform amid rising costs. A potential buying thesis hinges on Uber showing progress toward free cash flow profitability, improving operating margins, and a clear path to sustained delivery growth while managing regulatory and labor costs. Risks remain: competition from other platforms, inflationary pressure on gig workers, and the volatility of regulation. For opportunistic investors, a pullback could offer a setup if Uber can demonstrate consistent profitability, disciplined capex, and meaningful progress against its driverless ambitions.

While CZWI is highlighted, the screen also flags other stocks meeting the Recent Price Strength criteria for further exploration.

  • How to Spot Strong Computer & Technology Stocks Likely to Beat Earnings Using ESP and Zacks Rank
    November 6, 2025, 1:36 PM EST. Wall Street watchers focus on earnings surprises as a key driver of stock moves. This piece explains the Earnings ESP approach and how comparing the Most Accurate Estimate to the Zacks Consensus can reveal stocks poised to beat estimates. When paired with a Zacks Rank of #3 (Hold) or better, ESP-based picks have historically delivered positive surprises and attractive returns, with a roughly 28.3% annual gain shown in a 10-year backtest. The guide notes that most stocks fall into #3 (Hold), while #2 (Buy) and #1 (Strong Buy) ranks tend to outperform the market. The Pinterest example (PINS) shows how a positive ESP can signal opportunity before an earnings release and suggests considering related Computer and Technology names like Corning (GLW).
  • Diversified Healthcare (DHC): Attractive Valuation Amid Fast Momentum
    November 6, 2025, 1:34 PM EST. Momentum-focused investors are sometimes wary of paying up for fast-moving names; however, Diversified Healthcare (DHC) appears attractively priced even as it rides momentum. The stock has shown real uptime: a 16.9% gain in 12 weeks, a 0.1% move over the last four weeks, and a beta of 2.61, signaling strong responsiveness to market swings. DHC earns a Momentum Score of A and sits at Zacks Rank #2 (Buy), with rising earnings estimate revisions adding to the upside case. Crucially, valuation remains reasonable: the Price-to-Sales ratio sits at about 0.67, implying buyers aren't overpaying relative to sales. Together, these factors support a favorable risk-reward for momentum followers who seek bargains, though investors should monitor earnings trends and real estate dynamics in the residential care REIT space.
